You're lucky getting to go to Northampton, it sounds lovely to me. I go to SCUNTHORPE for my holidays for God's sake (brought up there). Scunthorpe is not known for it's tourist attractions, it's better known for it's heroin problem, it's toothless residents and the smell of sulphur from the local steelworks.........

A weekend there and I'm crying to get back to rural Ireland:pac:

yaeh but there is only one of me and my experience of turkey, wouldnt go back there, ate in one restaurant most of the time cause others were filthy and our girlfriends/wives were treated poorly and with no respect. Another night a few of my mates and me were nearly battered, because a gang of turkish lads thought we were english. So all i can speak of is personal experience and unlike you i cant speak for 39 million turks.

I've been too, and didnt enjoy myself, but I dont think its fair to say that of the entire place. I went to a dingy spit-hole of a city. I'd have loved to visit Istanbul, which is supposed to be amazing.

Personally, I hate any place thats overly Touristy, like where I stayed in Lanzarote (Cant remember the name). That said, I like to go on holidays to see places of interest, not to chill by the pool and what have you.

Kusidasi Turkey. I puked my ring up for a full week. Horrible

Sergeant

The Hotel California. It looked tempting in the brochure, but it seems we can never leave.

Here since October 1977.

VenusPlays

Egypt without question. We were harrassed by local guys every time we stepped outside our hotel even in front of our kids. And I was molested for our entire flight from Sharm to Cairo by a member of the airport staff who was on the flight and chatting away to his mates the air stewards while grabbing at me and laughing. And sort of threatened - he told me I had beautiful eyes and asked if he could take one of them!

Been to Istanbul. It's a strange place. Got ripped off, ended up on some sort of mafia man-made island, boyfriend got Turkish tummy and I got stared at really hostilely and pervily when I went out alone in a pair of shorts and a top to get him something from the pharmacy. I found it quite an unfriendly city too.

That said, some people were lovely and the place was beautiful. We were on the old side and I've heard the opposite side is completely different. Kind of sums up the city; it was a mass of strange, beautiful, sometimes intimidating but sometimes really interesting dichotomies.

Majorca, in particular Santa Ponsa and Magaluf, looks bad and my sane friends agree with me and these resorts are stuffed full of the sort of assholes I generally go on holiday to get away from.

I love GAA but if I see a GAA, FAI or IRFU Jersey and the words Irish Pub then I know for certain it is most likely a sh1thole and not the sort of place I get on a plane for several hours just to get p1ssed and demand the creature comforts of home!

In terms of Ireland as a teenager I was bundled into the car and we landed to Lisdoonvarna for a week, it was full of like 60+ old fogies on the pull with their crappy old music, my parents loved it, I couldn't even buy a decent newspaper there. A week of hell that was! The TV in the holiday home had RTE1 and RTE2 I nearly died I swear!

Tesco Massacre

I found Gran Canaria to be a bit of a sh*thole. A bunch of us had just finished our Leaving Cert. and we decided to head off on a sun holiday.
Not that I didn't have a good time, it's just that the place itself seemed cheap to me.

Plus, (and this is the main reason I didn't enjoy it) I was punched in the ear by a midget (yes, a midget) and a couple of his taller friends one night on the way home. The story is too embarrassing to go into in detail right now, but suffice to say that night ended poorly for everyone involved.

I might write a musical about it some day.

Egypt and Tunisia were pretty awful. Didn't like much about Turkey either. Won't be going to another predominantly arabic nation for a holiday again. Maybe it was just bad luck but I really didn't like the vibe in these places, especially compared to visits to family in the United States and France which we do a fair bit.

HavingCrack

Seaside Heights in New Jersey. Technically I wasn't on holiday there to be fair since I was working 6 days a week but fcuk me, what a complete ****hole. If you've ever seen the show Jersey Shore, multiply the cast to 20000 people or so and you can have an idea of my surroundings. Full of tacky, overpriced **** and the biggest arseholes I've ever met.

If the place gets flooded by Hurricane Irene I can honestly say I think I'd enjoy it, it's that awful.

Didn't enjoy Barcelona very much either.

Are we there yet, Are we there yet! Ah hell no!

Definitely Rio de Janeiro.

It's disgusting, you go for a casual walk on Ipanema or Copacabana, and all you see is sexy female arses in thongs.

It's disgraceful.

DRUMorDIE

Donegal.

My parents are the type of taking drives for the day to "enjoy the scenery" when my sisters and I much prefer wandering cities and actually something of interest besides random fields and villages with one street. At its worst (the moody teenage years) my dad and me got in a shouting match over what a holiday is and I got out of the car in the mountains of Donegal to try walk back to Letterkenny. Not fun at all and the Irish "summer" didn't do anything to lighten the mood
